Slovakia: Best Places to Visit
Bratislava
Near the western border of Slovakia, Bratislava is close to both Austria and Hungary and wears these associations proudly.

Sitting at the crossroads of Europe, Bratislava has a fabled history.  The country has been slower than the Czech Republic to develop its tourist industry but is currently regarded as one of the value destinations in Europe.


The Old Town, its palaces, museums, and castle should be the focus of your visit.

Travel Advisory

Independent travel  in Slovakia, outside of Bratislava, is difficult. If you are interested in visiting the Slovak Republic, we recommend that you do so as part of a tour, organized by a reputable company or pre-arrange a personal tour guide before your departure.
